Passive services with fixed check_time and freshness_threshold

[Michael Hüttig]

Hi all,
it's a little bit difficult to explain for me, i hope for your patience:

i wan't to send daily-sms, to check wether SMS is ok, i defined a passive 
service as follows. With freshness-option this service goes one time a day in 
critical state and sends an sms to operating. After that, operating has to 
submit a passive check-result via WEB-Interface. 

My question is how to define a fixed time when the service-freshness times 
out? This should be every working day between 7:30 and 10:00 am.

Here the definitions:

define service{
        host_name                               localhost
        service_description             Daily Test-SMS
        active_checks_enabled           0       ; Active service checks are 
enabled
        is_volatile                                     1
        check_freshness                         1
        check_period                            operating-workhour
        freshness_threshold             86400
        contact_groups                          operating-sms
        use                                             process-template
        check_command                   check_testsms
        }

        name                                            process-template
        is_volatile                                     0
